Model 5900
If you have Skype, you know that it runs on your PC to make phone calls easier and less
expensive. If you’re using a headset with Skype, you probably wish you could use
normal phones. Now you can!
The Zoom Phone Adaptor for Skype lets you use your favorite phone(s) with Skype. You
can plug a normal phone into the adaptor, and then make or receive calls using that
phone. You can even plug in a cordless base station for 1, 2, 4, or even more cordless
phones, and then make or receive calls using any of those phones!
The Zoom Phone Adaptor is easy to install and use, but it’s very powerful, especially if
you choose to plug the adaptor into normal phone service. Powerful bridging functions
allow Skype calls to be remotely accessed from mobile phones and other conventional
phone numbers. This lets you use a mobile phone (“cell phone”) to make calls using
Skype and save lots of money, or other phones remote from your PC.
Security on bridged calls is provided using Touchtone™ password protection.
Voice mail for both Skype and conventional calls is provided by the Model 5900, with
storage and management of the voice messages on the PC. The voice mail interface and
system administration prompts are provided in fourteen languages with automatic
installation based on the language used for the operating system.
The Model 5900 is USB port powered to reduce power adaptor clutter. The compact
size allows convenient placement in any setting.
There’s no better time than now to extend the power of Skype. And there’s no better
way than with the Zoom Phone Adaptor for Skype.
Use Normal Phones for Skype
It’s easy to extend the power and convenience of Skype:
1. Install the included software.
2. Plug the Adaptor into your computer’s USB port.
3. Plug your favorite phone or cordless base station into the Adapter.
4. If you like, plug the Adaptor into a phone jack to:
- extend Skype capabilities to mobile phones;
- allow the phone to be used for both Skype and conventional phone calls;
- add conferencing and call forwarding using Skype with conventional phone
service
5. Enjoy the power, convenience, and low cost of Skype!
